Working as a secretary at an international airport, my sister had an office
adjacent to the room where security temporarily holds suspects. One day
security officers were questioning a man when they were suddenly called away
on another emergency. To the horror of my sister and her colleagues, the man
was left alone in the unlocked room. After a few minutes, the door opened
and he began to walk out. Summoning up her courage, one of the secretaries
barked, "Get back in there, and don't you come out until you're told!" The
man scuttled back inside and slammed the door. When the security people
returned, the women reported what had happened. Without a word, an officer
walked into the room and released one very frightened telephone repairman.
